René Lacerte, Founder & CEO of Bill.com, Among 100 Most Intriguing Entrepreneurs at 2018 Builders + Innovators Summit

PALO ALTO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Goldman Sachs (NYSE: GS) is recognizing Bill.com Founder & CEO, René Lacerte, as one of the 100 Most Intriguing Entrepreneurs of 2018 at its Builders + Innovators Summit in Santa Barbara, California.

Goldman Sachs selected René Lacerte as one of 100 entrepreneurs from multiple industries to be honored. René is a fourth generation entrepreneur with over 25 years’ experience building transformative solutions for small and medium-sized businesses in the finance, software and payments industries. He built Bill.com into the leading digital business payments company with a network of 3 million members that processes over $60 billion annually. Earlier, he founded PayCycle, which grew to become the nation’s largest online payroll service before it was acquired by Intuit in 2009.

“Entrepreneurship is part of my family DNA and to be honored by Goldman Sachs for doing what I love is truly humbling,” said René Lacerte, Founder and CEO of Bill.com. “Bill.com has had an incredible year of growth and is building increasing momentum in the market. There’s never been a more exciting time for this industry, and I’m proud that Bill.com is being recognized for modernizing the way businesses connect and do business.”

“A dynamic economy depends on dynamic entrepreneurs who disrupt industries and occasionally give birth to entirely new sectors,” said David M. Solomon, Chief Executive Officer of Goldman Sachs. “The purpose of Builders + Innovators is to support emerging leaders in their quests to innovate faster in order to grow their ideas. We are pleased to recognize René Lacerte as one of the most intriguing entrepreneurs of 2018.”

For nearly 150 years, Goldman Sachs has been advising and financing entrepreneurs as they launch and grow their businesses. In addition to honoring 100 entrepreneurs, the summit consists of general sessions and clinics led by seasoned entrepreneurs, academics and business leaders as well as resident scholars.
